In an unfortunate turn of events during Palmeiras’ clash against Independiente de Valle on Wednesday night, Endrick was forced to leave the field on a stretcher due to an apparent right leg injury. The incident occurred in the 60th minute of the match, casting a shadow over Palmeiras’ hard-fought 2-1 victory.
Endrick had some dazzling moments up until that point. However, his promising performance came to an abrupt halt as he pulled up with discomfort, signalling distress to his right leg.
